Julie Heffernan
Julie Heffernan (born 1956 in Peoria, Illinois) is an American painter.
David Cohen, art critic of The New York Sun, says of Heffernan's art at a 2007 exhibition: "These paintings are a hybrid of genres and styles, mixing allegory, portraiture, history painting, and still life, while in title they are all presented as self portraits."[1]
Heffernan was raised in Northern California and lives in Brooklyn, New York. She received a B.F.A., at the University of California, Santa Cruz and, in 1985, an M.F.A. in Painting and Printmaking at the Yale School of Art.[2] Heffernan is a Professor of Fine Arts at Montclair State University in Upper Montclair, New Jersey.[2]
She is married to Jonathan Kalb, theater critic and chair of the Theater Department at Hunter College. Heffernan is the mother of two sons: Oliver, the eldest, and Sam.[3]
In October 2013 she exhibited 11 paintings in her exhibition Sky is Falling, at the PPOW gallery, New York.[4]
